Silk Blouse: Tips & Hints
The PFAFF® admire™ air 7000 coverlock machine offers a wide range of stitches - 26 in all - with multiple sewing applications. Among these stitches is the rolled hem. Though it is most commonly used for fine edge finishing on projects such as scarves and lightweight fabrics, the rolled hem offers decorative possibilities, as well. This silk blouse, an original design, features rows of serger pintucks sewn easily by creating multiple rows of three-thread narrow overlock stitching. The opposite sleeve features rolled hemming along the outer edge, which allows the fabric to drape beautifully. Seam finishes are sewn with the narrow three-thread overlock stitch, making this blouse as professional looking on the inside as it is on the outside!
